Integrating IO-Link master with the TIA portal
▶ Start the TIA portal.
▶ Create a new project or open an existing project.
▶ Configure the controller and the network as usual.
▶ Add the appropriate u-remote fieldbus coupler to the sub-
net.

The device description les support various congura-
tions for the UR20-4COM-IO-LINK module. The congu-
rations differ only in the length of the process data for the
IO-Link devices connected, e.g. 16bytes input data and
16bytes output data for IO-Link devices for the conguration
UR20-4COM-IOL-16BYTE-INOUT.
Select module with the appropriate process data length
▶ Determine the required process data length of the
IO-Link master, by adding the length of the input data and
output data of the IO-Link devices connected.
▶ In the device catalogue, select the UR20-4COM-IO-LINK
module with a process data length greater than or equal
to the required length.
